If you were a good girl—
in the evening instead of going out,
you would stay in and go to sleep.
In the morning instead of sleeping,
you would go to Mass.
If you were a good girl—
when you meet on the street one of those,
you would look away
instead of staring at
how he moves.
You wouldn't give me kisses on the street
in front of everyone, in front of everyone.
You wouldn't tell me that your dream at night
is to have me next to you, there in your bed.
If you were a good girl,
the ideal woman to marry,
innocent and pure—
it's likely that, at our first meeting,
I would have dumped you
instead of insisting so much, as I did,
to see you again.
You wouldn't give me kisses on the street
in front of everyone, in front of everyone.
You wouldn't tell me that your dream at night
is to have me next to you, there in your bed.
If you were a good girl—
in the evening instead of going out,
you would stay in and go to sleep.
In the morning instead of sleeping,
you would go to Mass.
